Thanks for participating!

Happy 2025 to all! We've made it through 2024, what a year it was, but we're all probably ready to put last year behind us and start anew. Without further ado, the Official CE Winter Contest results are in!

Winter Contest Results

Tough decisions! What amazing entries we received ¢ and 36 entries at that! Thank you everyone for participating, and it gives me great joy to give out our exclusive winter '24 marking gene to both winners and nonwinners alike.

Without further ado, here are our winners! As always, we had to include honorary mentions, so we'll start with those.

Aiyana Moonshine with The Skies Ice King! What grace, this stallion nearly glows off the canvas. Well done!

Hunter with Silver Bells! Excellent harmony of silver and blue, the floofiness of the wearables adds such a soft touch!

Third Place

Genesis with Spirit of the Tundra! The depth of silver really brings out the snowy feel, and the subtle hints of blues make this mare grab the third place!

Second Place

Dravonna with Lunar Lord! Don't let the bright blues distract you from the subtle glittering silver all around! This ethereal stallion remarkably captures both the softness and sharpness of the winter season. Simply beautiful!

First Place

Lady Yui with ¥¯ F¡w« (which is Elvish for snow) ! This stallion takes first place in his perfect display of shimmery, icy, and elegance in all its glory. The little hints of crystals and glints of color give so much depth to the silvery blue coloring. Congratulations on first place!

And a big congratulations to everyone who participated, you all have made this a truly special event, and we cannot tell you how much you're all appreciated. Winners, look out for your goodies coming to you shortly! And everyone else, we can't wait to see your pretties in the next hosted contest.

Give us a moment to recoup ourselves from the holidays, and our next newsletter will entail this month's spotlights!

With the arrival of Ansvin comes a host of exciting activities! A crowd favourite is undoubtedly the Ansvin Pinata!

Simply grab a spare Battle Item and give the pinata a good whack! Release any lingering stress from 2024 and receive a fun treat in return.

You can whack the pinata once an hour, up to three times a day. Just remember that your Battle Item will disappear after use, so only use ones you're happy to bid farewell to let them disappear into the 2024 abyss!





After visiting the Ansvin Pinata, don't forget to join in the fun at Pinata Mania! Simply click on a pinata to see if you've won a prize or if confetti is all you'll get.

A new round begins every 30 minutes, on the hour and half hour (:00 and :30). The round ends when the pinata is found. You can click on a pinata once every 30 seconds, or once every 15 seconds if you have a UHD, available from the I.C.E Shop. Activating the UHD on any site feature will unlock lower times in between pinata clicking and other similar seasonal games!

Pinata Mania will close on January 24th at 23:59:59 IST.
